| Name | Data Type | Default Value | Qualifiers |
| Name | Data Type | Value |
| LoadBalanceAlgorithm | uint16 | |
| Description | string | The desired load balance algorithm.
Least Blocks, Least IO, and Address Region are used in storage device path redundancy drivers to optimize load balancing by routing requests to a path with the least queued blocks or IO requests, or based on locality of reference.
'Product Specific' indicates that the algorithm is optimized for a particular type of product. Information about that product SHOULD be provided in an associated CIM_Product instance. |

| ValueMap | string | 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, .., 0x8000.. |
| Values | string | No Load Balancing, Round Robin, Least Blocks, Least IO, Address Region, Product Specific, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Reserved |
| Write | boolean | true |
| MaxNumberSupported | uint32 | |
| Description | string | MaxNumberSupported indicates the largest number of elements that will be able to participate in the RedundancySet. A value of 0 shall indicate no limit on the number of elements. |
| ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_RedundancySet.MaxNumberSupported |
| MinNumberNeeded | uint32 | |
| Description | string | MinNumberNeeded indicates the smallest number of elements that will be required to be operational in order for components dependent on the redundancy set to function. |
| MinValue | sint64 | 0 |
| ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_RedundancySet.MinNumberNeeded |
| VendorIdentifyingInfo | string | |
| Description | string | VendorIdentifyingInfo captures the vendor identifying data for the RedundancySet. One example is the product name for a cluster. |
| ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_RedundancySet.VendorIdentifyingInfo |
| Write | boolean | true |
| TypeOfSet | uint16[] | |
| ArrayType | string | Indexed |
| Description | string | TypeOfSet provides information on the type of redundancy. - N+1 (=2) indicates all members are active, are unaware and function independent of one another. However, there exist at least one extra member to achieve functionality. 'Sparing' is implied (i.e. each member can be a spare for the other(s). An example of N+1 is a system that has 2 power supplies, but needs only 1 power supply to functioning properly.
- Load Balanced (=3) indicates all members are active. However, there functionality is not independent of each other. Their functioning is determined by some sort of load balancing algorithm (implemented in hardware and/or software). 'Sparing' is implied (i.e. each member can be a spare for the other(s).
- Sparing (=4) indicates that all members are active and are aware of each others. However, their functionality is independent until failover. Each member can be a spare for the other(s).
- Limited Sparing (=5) indicates that all members are active, and they may or may not be aware of each and they are not spares for each other. Instead, their redundancy is indicated by the IsSpare relationship. |
